Review This Product Millennial fervor gripped many people around the world in the early nineteenth century. While Christians anticipated the return of Jesus Christ, a wave of expectation swept through Islam that the "Lord of the Age" would soon appear. In Persia, this reached a dramatic climax on May 23, 1844, when a twenty-five-year-old merchant from Shiraz named Siyyid 'Alí-Muhammad, later title "The Bab," announced that He was the bearer of a divine Revelation destined to transform the spiritual life of the human race.

Review This Product In June of 1920, two gentlemen arrived in the Netherlands to hand deliver a communication from ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, then head of the Bahá’í Faith, to the Executive Committee of the Central Organization for a Durable Peace at The Hague. This book examines the contents of these two Tablets, the historical circumstances that shaped nineteenth-century peace movements, and the catastrophic impact of the First World War. During this time, ‘Abdu’l-Bahá was actively engaged in promoting a clear understanding of the Bahá’í perspective on peace. His example has continuing relevance for the state of the world and the discourse on peace in the twenty-first century.

Review This Product Meditations for Families is the second title in the Pause & Reflect series, which presents meditative passages from the Bahá’í sacred writings arranged around particular themes. Perhaps there is no more significant bridge between our individual lives and the life of our communities than the theme of this book: families. The passages collected explore the unique bond between wife and husband, the raising and education of children, and the vitality of the family as a whole. These writings orient us toward love and unity, equality and cooperation, and spiritual growth.

Review This Product
Siyyid Mustafá Rúmí’s nearly century-long life was one filled with tireless travel and selfless service to the Cause of God. The extent of his role in the establishment of the Bahá’í communities in the Indian subcontinent—particularly in Burma (present-day Myanmar)—cannot be overstated. The memoirs offer the reader a fascinating firsthand account of the early days of the Bahá’í Faith in the region, along with details of several pilgrimages to the Holy Land and time spent in the presence of ‘Abdu’l-Bahá. Included in these passages are Tablets of Bahá’u’lláh and ‘Abdu’l-Bahá addressed to Siyyid Mustafá Rúmí, as well as letters of the Guardian, who would posthumously appoint him as a Hand of the Cause of God and describe him as an Apostle of Bahá’u’lláh, a pioneer, and a martyr.

Review This Product
At 14, Richard (Ricky) Abercrombie was besieged by prejudice because of his multi-racial background and angered by unsatisfactory answers to his heartfelt questions about religious truth. The time was 1960, and the place was Greenville, South Carolina. Ricky began carrying a gun, skipping school, and numbing his painful emotions with alcohol. His parents were worried and his future looked bleak. What happened next – an invitation to a birthday party at the home of a Bahá’í family – changed his life forever. Ricky became intrigued by Bahá’í teachings on racial equality, peaceful strategies for social justice, and the fundamental unity of religion. As he investigated these teachings, Ricky experienced a profound spiritual awakening that led him to give up the gun, stop drinking, and engage in life with hope and joy. His friends and family initially opposed his dangerous new association with racially integrated groups, but Ricky’s steadfastness drew them into investigating his new beliefs themselves. This true story of how a rebellious teenager transformed his own character and affected the lives of dozens of friends and family members is a cover-to-cover delight.

Review This Product The biography of a family who embraced the Bahá’í Faith in its earliest days in the United States and worked tirelessly to establish the Bahá’í community in Washington D.C. They also had the privilege of visiting and corresponding with ‘Abdu’l-Bahá, and served Him throughout His visit to North America. Author Judy Hannen Moe, the great-granddaughter of Joseph and Pauline Hannen, has combed through several archival collections in order to piece together the story of these inspiring souls. The resulting book is a treasure trove of highlights from the early days of the Faith in America, and an intimate glimpse of the lives of a handful of brilliant and devoted servants of the Cause.

For so many artists, creators, and change makers, meditation and mindful living are practices interwoven with the creative process. These passages can be used for quiet reflection and a source of inspiration for creative endeavors.

Review This Product Rejoice in My Gladness is a biography of one of the leading feminists, Tahirih, of the 1800s. The book tells how she began teaching the equality between men and women in largely Muslim Persia and how she was eventually martyred for her outspokenness and courage in the face of the male governing establishment in Persia.
